how we are going to get through this difficult period. if it is a recession, how we make it shallower and quicker. turned away by italy, now landing in france — a migrant rescue ship carrying 230 people causes a diplomatic row between the two nations. bagpipes. and — a0 years on, the british soldiers commemorating their comrades who died in the falklands war. it's been hailed as an historic day by the ukrainian president, volodymyr zelensky. russia has withdrawn its troops from the city of kherson — the only regional capital they'd managed to take since they invaded ukraine in february. thousands of russian troops have

retreated across the dnipro river — leaving the way open for ukrainian special forces to enter the centre of kherson. residents waved the national flag and embraced troops in the main square — chanting "glory to ukraine!" our international editor jeremy bowen is in odesa following the situation. chanting. kherson�*s residents emerged from their homes as the first ukrainian soldiers reached the main square. for them, it's the end of more than eight months under occupation. plenty to celebrate, but they are not out of danger. russia's guns are only a few miles away across the river. as they left, russian engineers blew a section of the antonovsky bridge over the dnipro. at dawn long lines of russian troops seemed to be using a temporary crossing under the main damaged structure.

the russian claim is that 30,000 soldiers and more than 5,000 pieces of equipment left kherson before the bridges were blown. we received these pictures from a special forces unit, taken as they poked around a camp the russians had abandoned. here, at least, this retreat looks better organised than some they were taking their country back. cheering. the people of kherson kept the liberation party going.

what's happened deepens the ukrainian conviction that they can beat russia. ukrainians can celebrate tonight. there'll be harder times ahead. jeremy bowen, bbc news, in ukraine. there's been celebrations in kyiv over the liberation of kherson. 0ur chief international correspondent lyse doucet is there. this is the mood here in the centre of kyiv toni - ht. this is the mood here in the centre of kyiv toni-ht. a ni-ht of of kyiv tonight. a night of celebration. look at the banners that they are holding here. kherson is ukraine. written and the colours of the ukrainian flag. they have been singing here for hours. popular songs like this, singing the ukrainian national anthem. this is the most significant victory for ukrainian forces in some time and certainly one of the most significant reversals

for the russians. president zelensky says ukrainian forces are nowjoining its special units in the centre of kherson. we have spoken to people tonight who believe that moments like this are bringing the end of the war closer, bringing them closer to the victory they have always believed was possible. but this war is far from over. this is a city which is suffering from power cuts because of russian strikes on the energy infrastructure. it also suffers from russian attacks. and the concern is that with this humiliation yet again for president putin's forces, it is just a matter of time before he strikes again. but that is not on the mind of these celebrations tonight. 0ur russia editor, steve rosenberg, says removing his troops from kherson is not much of a blow for president putin, if you ask russian media.

russian officials are not calling this a retreat, they are calling it a re—deplane into, end, a manoeuvre, trying to play things down a little bit. but that does not alter the fact that this was a withdrawal from the on the ukrainian provincial capital that the russians managed to capture since february, and it came just a few weeks after president putin had declared that kherson had become part of russia forever. so, yes, this is embarrassing, i think, for vladimir putin. it is a blow to the russian president, which is probably why after president putin had declared that kherson had become part of russia forever. so, yes, this is embarrassing, i think, for vladimir putin. it is a blow to the russian president, which is probably why the kremlin has been trying to distance him from the decision to retreat because it knows that the pull—back will be seen

as a setback by many people in russia. it doesn't want the president taking the flak. that is why the russian generals had to go on television earlier this week. it was left to them to announce this withdrawal to the russian people. at the end of the day, who is the commander—in—chief in russia? it is vladimir putin. whose idea was it to invade ukraine? vladimir putin. so it is hard to imagine that at some point, vladimir putin want be caught up in the consequences of and the fallout from the war, whatever those may be. where are we when it comes to kherson itself? joining me now is keir giles, author of the forthcoming book russia's war on everybody. before we start talking about the bigger picture and what this means for russia, when it comes to specifically this withdrawal from kherson, we heard steve rosenberg say they are the significance of it of this being the only provincial capital that russia had held. now it's lost it. capitalthat russia had held. now it's lost it. ., �* ,

capitalthat russia had held. now it's lost it. . �* , �* , it's lost it. that's right, it's symbolic _ it's lost it. that's right, it's symbolic. it's _ it's lost it. that's right, it's symbolic. it's not - it's lost it. that's right, it's symbolic. it's not the - it's lost it. that's right, it's symbolic. it's not the only| it's lost it. that's right, it's - symbolic. it's not the only major city that russia has held. let's not forget the siege of mary earlier in the year —— or two. the problem of grace is that russia has realised long ago that it will not win this war on the battlefield. as you heard from your correspondence earlier, the war is not over by a long way because russia is looking for alternative ways of winning it, realising that it is on the back foot with the face of this ukrainian offensive. that's the reason why russia is hammering ukraine's economy and its power infrastructure to help make sure that its people cannot live through this winter. that's why it's trying any means possible to slip away that western support and backing that is keeping ukraine in the fight. itjust makes it all the more important to support ukraine so that it can continue functioning as a state while russia is doing its best to stop it.- is doing its best to stop it. these kind of withdrawals _ is doing its best to stop it. these kind of withdrawals are _ is doing its best to stop it. these kind of withdrawals are taking . kind of withdrawals are taking place, does that mean they are looking at more serious attacks? we have in the past spoken about this

idea of potential using nuclear weapons. is that something that is still very much possibly in the back of president putin's mind? he still very much possibly in the back of president putin's mind? no doubt it will be in the — of president putin's mind? no doubt it will be in the back _ of president putin's mind? no doubt it will be in the back of _ of president putin's mind? no doubt it will be in the back of his _ of president putin's mind? no doubt it will be in the back of his mind, - it will be in the back of his mind, but it doesn't seem to be at the front of the moment. we don't think it ever was. there is a big difference between what president clinton was threatening with this nuclear rhetoric and what —— president putin, and what he thinks nuclear weapons are really far. and since those threats have become less effective, they stopped being used. 0nce effective, they stopped being used. once the west has finally got wise to the fact that president putin throws around nuclear threats but they are empty, they stopped coming out so often. we celebrate tend attempt at a ukrainian dirty bomb a few weeks ago, but that was slapped down as soon as it appeared so russia did not pursue that any further. they would look for ways of pressuring ukraine, they will look for ways for pressuring other countries to reduce their support for ukraine. nuclear weapons are a long way off. we for ukraine. nuclear weapons are a long way off-— long way off. we obviously don't know what _ long way off. we obviously don't know what is _ long way off. we obviously don't know what is going _ long way off. we obviously don't know what is going on _ long way off. we obviously don't know what is going on in - long way off. we obviously don't i know what is going on in president put in's mind, but when you are

working on your book, it will be published soon, russia's were on everybody, you are looking at this drive that russia has in terms of trying to take control of everything. what is that drive? that's exactly right. the book is not about what's happening in ukraine, although obviously that is the most tragic and shocking example of what russia tries to do. it is more about the covid war of power and influence across the rest of the world and how it affects ordinary people around the world. we have seen russia unable to step away from this idea that it has to be a great power and that means it has to have power and that means it has to have power and control over other countries beyond its borders. the immediate victim being ukraine but russia's aim being so much broader than that. it is something which russia has simply not been able to learn is not suitable for europe and the 21st century and so it still continues to push for that power and doing damage wherever it possibly can. ., . ., ., , can. how much of that drive is president _ can. how much of that drive is president putin _ can. how much of that drive is president putin and _

the summer, sparking fears of a recession. it fell by 0.2% between july and september — as households and businesses were hit by soaring prices, higher energy bills and rising interest rates. 0ur economics editor, faisal islam has more. in walsall, tp electrical make the cables that connect the electrics within cars and trains, so they are sensitive both to consumer spending going down and government spending under pressure, as well as the rising cost of materials, such as copper. in terms of the inflationary pressures, this business, labour intensive and wage rises. the material content here as a business is significant. we recognise we have to pedal faster to stand still. as a team, that is exactly what we are doing. there are certain elements within our control, so some of the input cost, the efficiencies. we work hard at it. even before significant government cuts expected next week, rises in tax too, recession looms over the uk. this fall of 0.2% means that the uk

was the only economy to fall of the major g7 economies over the summer. even as many were hit by the same global energy shock. questions will only grow if this is the start of a long period of decline but more concerning is if you take it back all the way to just before the pandemic, the uk economy of is smaller than what it was at the end of 2019. at the start of this government as brexit was occurring. this is unique across the g7. the other economies are bigger, having faced similar global challenges from the pandemic and from russian energy. which raises reasonable questions about whether post—brexit trade and worker policies have made the economy less efficient, less resilient to these common shocks. the government still argues everyone is being hit the same. are you alarmed by the fact that the uk of the g7 is the only uk economy shrinking at the moment?

according to the international monetary fund, around a third of the world's economy is in recession this year or will be in recession next year. that is principally, but not entirely because of high global energy prices. l we can't carry on like this with i great lower than our competitors, with no plan to boost the economy i and get those good qualityjobs i throughout the country. the conservatives need to do two things, stabilise the economy- and have a plan for growth. and yet not only do they need to grow the economy, they promised the regions across the whole of the uk would grow even more with big projects such as new train lines. by the end of this decade you will see a three kilometre long viaduct going into a brand—new station connecting birmingham with london and its infrastructure is key to the government's plans to level up the country. but it is also infrastructure that in the past has been the first cut

when public spending comes under the microscope. so how will they square this with notjust levelling up, but with promises to focus on growth for the whole economy? back at the factory, if they want certainty and big government investment, there are some signs of light at the end of the tunnel in the global economy, that inflation has peaked and supplies from china will not be interrupted by new covid waves. but it may yet be a lengthyjourney through that tunnel. faisal islam, bbc news. stay with us on bbc news, still to come: president biden joins the cop27 summit, pledging to re—establish the us as a reliable global leader on tackling climate change. the bombastic establishment outsider, donald trump, has defied the pollsters to take the keys to the oval office. i feel great about the election results. i voted for him because i genuinely believe he cares about the country.

it's keeping the candidate's name always in the public eye that counts. success or failure depends not only on public display, but on the local campaign headquarters and the heavy routine work of their women volunteers. berliners from both east and west linked hands and danced - around their liberated territory. and, with nobody to stop them, it wasn't long before the first i attempts were made to destroy the structure itself. _ yasser arafat, who dominated the palestinian cause for so long, has died. palestinian authority has declared a state of mourning. after 17 years of discussion, the result was greeted women ministers, who have long felt only grudgingly accepted amongst the clergy, suddenly felt welcome. this is bbc news, the latest headlines... russian troops have withdrawn from the city of kherson —

and the ukrainian flag is flying again — in what is a hugely consequential moment in the nine month war. recession looms in the uk as the economy shrinks — driven in part by steep declines in manufacturing. the government has warned of a tough road ahead. giorgia meloni, the new italian prime minister, has criticised france in a row over the handling of a migrant rescue ship , the vessel had been refused entry into italy. the ocean viking ship was carrying 230 migrants, including 57 children. france allowed the ship to dock in toulon and warned that there would be severe consequences for relations with italy. mark lowen reports. arriving into safe harbour, but sailing into a diplomatic crisis between france and italy, the ocean viking, which rescued migrants coming from libya, but whom italy refused to take in. and so france agreed to welcome the ship instead.

the migrants on board had been blocked for days. italy finally allowed three other vessels to dock, declaring france would take this one. but it seems paris hadn't agreed. seeing italy's announcement as a way of forcing a deal behaviour it called reprehensible. translation: many | people were very sick. italy has been very inhumane in handling the situation. the italian authorities were not professional. they left this boat there for 20 days without making any decisions. italy's new prime minister, giorgia meloni, hit back. the country has long argued it unfairly bears the migration burden. but there's also domestic politics here, with a far right leader wanting to please her base. translation: i was struck by the aggressive reaction from the french government, which, from my point of view,

is incomprehensible and unjustified. what exactly makes them so angry that italy must be the only possible port of disembarkation for migrants in the mediterranean? i don't think that's right. some on board had to be flown to a french hospital. italy says almost 90,000 migrants have arrived here this year while the ocean viking is the first ngo boat france has accepted. but the french far right still seized the moment, condemning president macron's move. translation: he makes people believe that he is opposed to massive _ and illegal immigration, when in reality he is its defender, its promoter, and if i may say so, this act, this decision that has just been taken is the greatest symbol of it. this was the moment the migrants heard they'd be allowed into france after a treacherous journey and days blocked at sea. the latest pawns in the migration battle dividing the eu.

theirjourney for now may be over, but the storm between two eu allies is whipping up. mark lowen, bbc news, rome. president biden has told the cop27 climate summit that he wants to re—establish the us as a reliable global leader on tackling climate change. he said he's committed to the target of halving us carbon emissions by 2030 and he apologised for his predecessor donald trump pulling out of the paris climate accord. 0ur climate editorjustin rowlatt sent this report from sharm el sheik. another hurricane smashed into florida today, yet more wild weather for the us. it has endured heat waves and wildfires, and some epic floods. as president biden arrived in the egyptian desert, he claimed his climate policies will drive down emissions and transform the us. we are proving that good climate policy is good economic policy.

it is a strong foundation for durable, resilient, inclusive economic growth. it is driving progress in the private sector. around the world. nancy, have you got a moment to speak to the bbc? the american mid—term election results were better for the president's party than some pundits predicted. we are less than - a minute away, ma'am. but the democrats still look likely to lose control of the house of representatives. oh, there you are. yes! the house speaker says she hopes the republicans will become more cooperative on climate. we didn't get one republican vote but i would hope that when they have more responsibility and more opportunity, they will take responsibility. # why can't you see... but losing the house will make it difficult for the us to come up with cash for international climate action. the poorest developing countries are often hit

hardest by climate change, like south sudan, where a drought is adding to the chaos of war. they say the us isn't paying its fair share. we want the us to be on board. we want to be all together. all countries have to be on board. that may be but the us and china have stopped cooperating on tackling global warming. this is china's pavilion at the conference. it now talks about competing with the us on climate. it wants to keep its lead on renewable technologies like wind turbines, solar panels and batteries. the us uses similar language. it talks about overtaking china on clean tech, but this could be good news. it could mean cheaper renewables and maybe even generate a rush to find finance for developing nations. as president biden leaves egypt tonight, the hope is superpower competition on climate could bring progress. justin rowlatt, bbc news, egypt.

the falklands war took place a0 years ago — but many of the british veterans who fought there are still living with the scars of the short io—week conflict with argentina. this week, some of them have returned for the first time to the islands to mark the anniversary and pay tribute to fallen friends. 0ur defence correspondent jonathan beale travelled with them and has sent this report from port stanley. the peace and calm of san carlos bay today. but a0 years ago, this was known as bomb alley, with argentine jets attacking a british task force sent to liberate these islands on the other side of the world. coming over that feature, coming down bomb alley and try and sink

poignant reports, and we will have special technic special coverage of remembrance sunday over the weekend. thank you very much for watching. hello. this exceptionally mild weather is producing some remarkable temperatures — 19.5 degrees celsius in lancashire on friday, 19.1 at lossiemouth in murray. so, what's going on? we've got a big dip in thejet stream to the west of the uk and it's around the base of this dip are drawing up close to the azores, some of this exceptionally mild air ourway. so temperatures are so far above average for the time of year. in fact, on thursday night, provisionally, according to the met office, both scotland and northern ireland had their warmest november nights on record. and of course, climate change is not just about those big headline grabbing daytime temperatures, it's how far we keep warmth overnight as well. very windy on friday across northern areas and yet more rain in the highlands. in fact, taggart since monday has

had 258 millimetres of rain, some months worth of rain in a week. a lot of that rain has gone this weekend keeping the very mild weather. not as windy, though, and that does increase the risk of seeing some mist and some fog and actually a cooler start to the day for saturday, in fact. and the clear skies in northeast scotland, low single figures in some spots, six or seven degrees in east anglia with a lot of low cloud and messiness across a large part of wales and england. northern ireland seeing some overnight rain clearing away as that trundles north across scotland. behind it will brighten up, though, still the clouds thick enough in a few spots for a bit of drizzle. some eastern parts of england may stay with some low cloud, whereas for much of england and wales will turn sunny. a cooler day, but still very mild for scotland, northern ireland, northern england through much of england and for wales we're talking 16 to 18 degrees celsius. and yes, those lighter winds allowing more in the way of low cloud and mist and fog to form as we go overnight and into sunday morning, thick enough for some drizzle in places, particularly through eastern scotland, central and eastern parts of england, a milder start to the day on sunday. so for remembrance sunday, then a grey, misty, murky start

in many places. and although for many places it will brighten up and get to see some sunshine. there'll be some spots from eastern scotland and down through central and eastern parts of england that could well hold on to some gray conditions, maybe quite widely into yorkshire. another very mild day out there, wind freshening in the west and rain to northern ireland as we go on into the evening. and the main feature of the weather for the week ahead is the temperatures are going to come down much closer to average spells of strong winds and heavy rain at times.

hello, welcome to our look ahead to what the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are the parliamentary journalist, tony grew, and anne mcelvoy, who's senior editor at the economist. welcome back to you both. let's start with the front pages we are ready have. leading the times tomorrow is the news that care home residents may get the legal right to receive visitors — as many homes still impose harsh covid restrictions. the guardian alleges staff at the justice department were offered �*an out�* to avoid working with dominic raab. while the express reports on an �*ambitious' proposal to have uk officers in france to prevent migrant crossings.
